While the federal body itself may have slender financial resources, it is possible for some of the constituent bodies to have sufficient funds to allow of full-time organisers for their organisations. Let us say, for example, that the Voters' Association, the Trade Unions, the African National Congress and the Teachers' Association were all affiliated to the Convention and could each afford an organiser. What would their function be and what would they do? Bearing in mind that the prime inpulse which brought the All-African Convention into being was the urge to unity on the part of the people — a unity which replaced rivalry and disruption — the organisers would see their task as much more than simply propagandising their own particular organisations.

We have said that the formation of the All-African Convention was the organisational expression of the enthusiasm and determination engendered in the people by the announcement of the Bills. The momentum of this enthusiasm carried it to 1937 when the Draft Constitution constituting the AllAfrican Convention as a permanent body, was formally ratified in the midst of speeches which still breathed the spirit of unity. Now it often happens that a political act takes some time before it bears its evil fruit.

This was bound up with the fact that the organisations were attached to individual leaders, who were looked up to as heroes, with the result that the whole activity of organisations tended to revolve round these leaders and their ambitions. In such an atmosphere it is not surprising that the African people did not consciously formulate their tasks and work out a programme of struggle against the oppressor on a nation-wide scale. Their vision was circumscribed and turned in upon themselves; their energies were dissipated and exhausted in mutual strife.
